Afternoon Tea was popularized by Anna, the 7th Duchess of Bedford in the early 19th century. She started the tradition of having a light meal and tea in the afternoon to curb her hunger between lunch and dinner. So, while she didn't technically "invent" Afternoon Tea, she definitely made it a thing.
